	Most knights wear the most flamboyant armour they can afford, often covered with a surcoat bearing their personal or house heraldry.

	High quality leather armour mimics the form of plate – breastplates, gorgets with articulated arms, vambraces etc may all be worn and often bear their owners’ heraldry as a form of rich decoration. Full length ‘coats’ of leather scale or plates may be worn alone or under more leather armour.

	Shields are highly popular in Dawn, as much for their decoration as their ability to protect. Heater shields are the favoured shape, decorated with personal or household devices. The traditional Dawnish shield is a heater or a kite shield. Whatever the shape, a shield is the perfect place for a Dawnish noble to display their personal arms or the insignia of their house.

	==Plate==		==Plate==
	The very wealthiest knights of Dawn possess a harness of plate, but it is more than just armour. The nation, house or personal symbol maybe etched, engraved or decorated on the armour. Alternatively a rich embroidered cloak could be thrown over the plate. A beautiful surcoat or jupon can be used to emphasise the knight’s regal nature . Individual pieces of plate are often worn over mail. Even without a surcoat, a noble can demonstrate their link to a house with a richly dyed padding worn under the harness.

	Mail is highly valued, either worn under plate or by itself. Ideally such armour should include a surcoat or a robe decorated with a house symbol, often a [[legendary beasts\|fabulous beast]] like a chimera or a dragon.
